I just got back from a fun show at the Rickshaw Stop in SF. It was a “Prom Night” theme tonight and the Devilettes were performing. I saw them once before, but I don’t recall them being so freakin’ hilarious. Their dance moves are so silly and their facial expressions are so animated. It was a blast to watch them.
The Barbary Coasters played at about 10:30 and they were really great. I’ve listened to their records, but I’ve never had the opportunity to see them live until tonight. I thought they were the best band on the stage. The singer looks really familiar to me, I think I’ve met her before or seen her somewhere - oh well, it doesn’t matter. They were really cool with their ventures-style guitars and 1950’s song lyrics.
The next band to come on was the Ship Disturbers. They were okay - a cover band doing 60’s soul music. It was good background for the Devilettes.
The Struts played last and they were good - but I wasn’t all that into them. I like their 7″ that came out last year (?), but I didn’t really care much for their live show. Sorry. Maybe I was just tired by the time they came on. I’ll have to see them again, perhaps.
